I've recently bought a 2005 Mini One Convertible. It's got 18" John Cooper Works alloys, and the chrono pack interior.

Hi everybody I'm new here.
I don't currently drive any mini but I do own a 1965 wolseley hornet that I'm in the process of restoring.
I'm thinking about starting a thread but I have already stripped it down to a shell and a pile of bits so might be a half thread ;)

I am either having a mid life crisis or re-living my youth after owning 4 minis in the 80's I have decided to take the plunge again and have acquired a Mini Piccadilley to restore back to its former glory.

 

Already suffering from the every job on a mini leads to another but hoping to get along to the London to Brighton run in 2016 (ticket purchased) so have seta target to achieve road worthiness.

 

Great site and plenty of knowledge on here so a credit to all members

 

I have reconditioned the head, fitted an HS4 with a Fletcher system exhaust and a few other small items but cant get it to start! job for the weekend to add to the clutch slave overhaul, flexible brake hose change, removing and cleaning seat covers and anything else that gets added to the list

Newbie to the forum, but not to the classic mini. I'm now on my 14th ownership of a black 1983 Austin Mini Mayfair with a standard 1275 gold seal engine implanted. 

 

Can't wait to answer some questions and get some answers from the community. . . . . I've actually got a bit of a nightmare going on right now, however i'll ask that question in the tech forum  ;D
